Info about Tunnel Escape:

Official game description:
Tunnel Escape is a rogue-lite exploration RPG/ADV set in a city infected by a zombie virus. It combines action and strategy in a fusion of intense gunplay with turn-based combat, item crafting and a deep skill system. Each bullet shot, each grenade thrown and each step taken will count towards failure or success.
EXPLORE THE UNDERGROUND LABORATORY
----------------------------------
On the run from the spreading infection in the city, Beatrice discovers the entrance to a secret biological laboratory. Documents mention the existence of a successfully developed vaccine, sending her on a journey deep into the complex as she becomes humanity’s last hope.
UTILIZE AN ARSENAL OF WEAPONS AND SKILLS
----------------------------------------
Beatrice will need to defend herself from the dangers lurking below. Unlock unique guns, each with their own benefits and downsides; use throwables to blast enemies into pieces, blind them, stun them or set them all on fire. Even a strong kick to the face can turn the tide of battle in your favor - time to unleash the power of high-heels in close-quarters-combat!
In addition to raw weapon power, Beatrice can learn hundreds of different skills. Every gun has its own set of active skills, for example unlocking the potential of rapid fire for the pistol, using birdshot to hit all enemies at once with the shotgun, or emptying an entire magazine into the undead horde in one go with the automatic rifle. Supplemented by a huge number of passive skills for offense and defense, Beatrice gets access to a growing number of strategic options.
FIGHT UNIQUE ENEMIES AND BOSS BATTLES
-------------------------------------
Zombies are far from the only threat roaming the massive, interconnected facility. Dozens of strange abominations can be encountered, from mutated creatures, infested animals and living plants to weaponized machinery and many more. Every stage features a unique selection of enemies, complete with a boss battle at the end. Defeating a stage boss will require clever use of strategy, learning the enemies’ weaknesses and utilizing the right skills at the right time.
ENJOY HANDCRAFTED ART AND ANIMATIONS
------------------------------------
Every animation was crafted by use of traditional techniques, with every frame and variation of motion having been carefully hand-drawn and manually refined.
Beatrice’s facial expressions, subtle bodily movements, particle effects and voice overs for every event are meticulously controlled through scripting.
ENCOUNTER RANDOM EVENTS: EVERY RUN IS DIFFERENT
-----------------------------------------------
Meet other characters, open chests with valuable loot, buy stat-altering drinks at vending machines, water strange plants (at your own risk) and defeat thieving little rodents among many other events that can be encountered at random. No two runs will be the same as Beatrice needs to adapt to beneficial and dangerous encounters alike.
CRAFTING SYSTEM
---------------
Unlock crafting to combine items into new or stronger ones. Recovery items and ammunition for a secret weapon can be assembled whenever you are not in an active battle. Plan ahead of time to make sure you have the edge in combat when you need it the most.
PICK YOUR DIFFICULTY
--------------------
Different difficulty settings allow players of all skill levels to enjoy the game. Whether you play for the story or the challenge, the rogue-lite system of earning permanent upgrades will make the game easier even after failed attempts - and for those seeking the hardest challenge: Beatrice’s level can be lowered in the later game for that extra dose of difficulty.
FULL CONTROLLER SUPPORT AND FORCE FEEDBACK
------------------------------------------
In addition to keyboard controls, every part of the game has full controller support. Furthermore, detailed force feedback simulates hits, kicks, shots and blasts, creating a tactile experience for every action. We recommend giving controller vibration a try for the highest level of immersion.
For an especially comfortable experience: The game was designed for effortless navigation with just one hand. Left, right or both hands, the control scheme allows you to play the way you desire.

Feature scans:
- Proton/Linux: score 30; verdict: Minor Linux tweaks required; summary: The available reviews indicate that the game runs on Linux and Steam Deck. The only Linux-specific friction is a patch-installer workaround requiring users to add the patch .exe as a non-Steam game and run it with Proton 9.0.4. No launch failures, crashes, anti-cheat blockers, or severe performance issues are mentioned.
- Steam Deck: score 70; verdict: High Friction and Crash-Prone; summary: The Steam Deck baseline is partially positive because the game runs on Linux and supports controllers with vibration. However, the experience is heavily undermined by manual patch installation through a non-Steam .exe and Proton configuration, with one reviewer stating the patch cannot be loaded on Deck. Stability reports also mention many bugs, crashes, no suspend save, and repeated progress loss. These issues place the overall friction in the broken/high-friction range despite good native controls.

- Hardware Profile: No data
Feature extractions:
- Community Price:
  - Community fair range: $9.99 - $14.99
  - Reasoning: The reviews consistently treat the full $25 price as too high for the amount and quality of content. Multiple users explicitly name around $10 as acceptable, say the game is only worthwhile at half price, or advise waiting for a discount. Positive reviews show the game has perceived value, but they do not justify a premium full-price purchase. This supports a fair base-game range of roughly $10 to $15, with the upper end reflecting users who find the content worthwhile when discounted.
- Playtime Metrics:
  - Game completion: 12.0h
  - Story completion: 10.0h
  - Session length: 0.3h
  - Endgame: 4.0h
  - Reasoning: The direct story-mode claim supports storyCompletion around 10 hours. Other reports placing credits at 12 to 15 hours support a representative gameCompletion of about 12 hours. The stated average loop length of about 20 minutes supports a sessionLength of roughly 0.33 hours per run. A translated report says Endless Nightmare floors 1-162 took 4 hours, with late 20-floor blocks noted elsewhere as taking 30+ minutes, supporting an endgame value around 4 hours for a substantial endless run. Confidence is moderate because difficulty, farming, and patch status create wide variation.
- Time-to-fun:
  - Summary: Players often find the gameplay loop immediately enjoyable or addictive, but repetition and grinding can reduce enjoyment as progression continues. The drop-off is reported especially around later floors or levels, while some players still value the rogue-lite progression and replayability.

  - Anchor: N/A
  - Time to anchor: N/A
  - Friction: Early-game difficulty before learning the combat; Heavy grinding for weapons, skills, levels, and ammo; Repetitive combat and unavoidable animations; Resource scarcity, especially ammunition; Crashes or freezes that erase progress
  - Unlock drivers: Learning combat mechanics after early-game difficulty; Meta-progression softening failure and rewarding persistence; Nicely paced rogue-lite skills and passives; Non-combat QTEs breaking up turn-based combat

- Weak and thin story (weight 0.15): The story is repeatedly described as simple, sparse, and not a strong point of the game. Some also criticize the final boss behavior as incoherent with the narrative.
- Ammo scarcity frustrates players (weight 0.14): Ammo is limited with carry caps, does not regenerate, and running out during boss fights can force a chapter restart. This makes late-game and normal mode feel overly punishing.
- R18 patch requires manual download (weight 0.12): The 18+ patch must be downloaded separately from the developer's website with no instructions provided. Recent updates have also caused the patch to stop working for some players.

- Insufficient content overall (weight 0.04): Players report there is too little content in the game. This ties into the feeling of an unfinished product and low value relative to price.
- Cannot save mid-run (weight 0.04): Players cannot save mid-run, so an accident or bug completely blocks progress and forces restarting. This is a significant usability problem.
- Regenerating boss wastes time (weight 0.04): A boss with a regeneration modifier can heal 900 HP per action, or 700 HP with 500 HP heals, making fights extremely difficult and wasting tens of minutes of progress.
- Animations cannot be skipped (weight 0.04): Animations are not avoidable or speed-up-able, which players find frustrating. This adds to the sense of slow pacing.
- No Korean localization (weight 0.04): The game has no official Korean localization. This limits accessibility for Korean-speaking players.

- Virgin playstyle becomes too grindy (weight 0.03): Maintaining a virgin playstyle after the second layer becomes very grindy. Players find this restriction increasingly difficult to sustain.
- Pirate mouse reaction window too tight (weight 0.03): The pirate mouse enemy is too punishing for players with slow reactions. Its reaction window is described as too tight.

- Grind-heavy gameplay loop (weight 0.07): The game involves heavy grinding and repetitive gameplay, particularly for skills. Multiple reviewers note the grind-heavy nature of the progression system.
- Skill points from leveling (weight 0.07): Leveling up grants points that can be used to learn passive and active skills. Each level provides perk points for skill set progression.
- Dungeon crawler structure (weight 0.06): The game is a dungeon crawler where players must traverse dungeons. It combines dungeon exploration with battle gameplay.
- Resource management strategy (weight 0.06): The game involves resource management and strategic decision-making. Players must manage resources carefully during gameplay.

Other player notes:

Emotions:
- Frustration (weight 0.22): Players are frustrated by RNG-heavy combat mechanics, excessive grinding, and severe resource scarcity that makes progress feel luck-based and laborious. Frequent crashes, missing files, and a broken external patch system further block progression and erase progress. Late-game enemy stat inflation and multi-action enemies create unavoidable death spirals.
- Disappointment (weight 0.12): Players are disappointed by a short, underwhelming story, limited replay value, and content that feels unfinished or missing compared to promises. The R18 patch removes content, breaks saves, and leaves the game with missing features, while the non-adult mode disables gameplay elements. Balance issues and lack of gallery or recollection features compound the letdown.
- Satisfaction (weight 0.09): Players find satisfaction in the game's deep strategic combat, balanced resource management, and rewarding build variety, especially on hard difficulty. The integration of adult content with engaging turn-based gameplay, smooth animations, and strong art exceeds expectations. Progression and skill synergy feel earned without power creep.
- Enjoyment (weight 0.08): Players enjoy the core gameplay loop of stage progression, shooting, boss fights, and leveling up skills. Strategic combat, abundant monster types, and well-integrated H-scenes create an addictive and fun experience. The horror atmosphere, music, and character progression add to the enjoyment.
- Annoyance (weight 0.06): Players are annoyed by the convoluted requirement to download an external patch, forced grinding for resources and skill books, and long unskippable animations. Endless mode's tedious floor requirements, slow progression after level cap, and poor final boss design add to the irritation. Manual ammo checks and repetitive dungeon resupply feel like unnecessary chores.
- Enthusiasm (weight 0.03): Players are enthusiastic about the clever integration of adult content with strategic turn-based combat, offering depth without requiring separate farming. The variety of guns, resource-conservation fights, and high-quality animations create an engaging loop. The demo convinced many to buy immediately due to fun gameplay.
- Admiration (weight 0.02): Players admire the game's creative and challenging design, superb hand-drawn art, Live2D animations, and legendary music. The intelligent appropriation of references, deep gameplay integration of adult content, and satisfying gun combat in a turn-based RPG make it feel like a masterpiece. The protagonist's growth and varied enemy design earn high praise.
- Excitement (weight 0.02): Players are excited by the solid gameplay loop, strategic risk-reward decisions around ammo and items, and rich tactical gun combat. Memorable boss battles, a fire soundtrack, and the seduce-abuse-restrain combat loop keep players engaged. Discovery of enemy weaknesses and resource management add thrilling tension.
- Anger (weight 0.02): Players are angered by malware included to combat piracy, missing adult scenes despite store images, and hentai content being sold separately. Severe bugs that corrupt saves and erase hours of progress, combined with extreme early difficulty and a regenerating boss, provoke strong anger. DRM harming computers and forcing payment for updates adds to the outrage.
- Surprise (weight 0.02): Players are pleasantly surprised by the music quality, unexpectedly fun gameplay, and a story that goes beyond a simple zombie apocalypse. Full controller support, unexpected boss fight music, and an impregnation mechanic in endless mode defy low expectations. The game turned out to be a genuine surprise.
- Confusion (weight 0.02): Players are confused by achievements not unlocking despite meeting conditions, H content disappearing after patching, and expected adult scenes failing to appear. Reaching specific rooms or completing levels without triggering promised content creates uncertainty about how systems work. Claims about no saves in endless mode and missing item locations add to the confusion.
- Appreciation (weight 0.02): Players appreciate the well-chosen soundtrack, high-quality CG animations, and full moving portraits that elevate the experience. The game's balance of challenge and playability, engaging combat, and impactful music earn praise. Detailed item-use animations and excellent voice acting add to the appreciation.
- Boredom (weight 0.02): Players find the game boring due to highly repetitive grinding for scenes and achievements, especially before key mechanics like pregnancy pay off. Monotonous nonstop grinding, slow money earning, and too few interactive events make late-game play feel like a chore. Linear design and lack of updates further reduce engagement.
- Relief (weight 0.02): Players feel relief when patches restore missing achievements, fix crash-causing audio errors, and make the 18+ content work again. Quick bug fixes and surviving difficult rounds with resources intact provide a sense of recovery. The game becoming playable after updates alleviates prior frustration.
- Dissatisfaction (weight 0.02): Players are dissatisfied that R18 content requires a separate patch, progression lacks growth-based attack power, and the game demands excessive grinding. The high price is not justified by the content volume or enemy variety compared to previous versions. Poor balance and the inability to modify lewdness add to the dissatisfaction.
- Engagement (weight 0.01): Players are engaged by resource management, encounter decisions, and equipment management across progressively harder levels. The strategic combat and progression loop, balanced with the risk of defeat from a few missteps, creates meaningful choices. Feeling of agency and tension keeps players invested.
- Tedium (weight 0.01): Players find the dungeon long and tedious, with grinding that feels like a chore and bad pacing. The economy makes the player poorer the more they fight, and post-battle reloading becomes slow in the late game. The final boss overstays its welcome, adding to the tedium.
- Distrust (weight 0.01): Players distrust the unsigned external patch packages that can be tampered with, and the need to download from unofficial sources raises security questions. Stated skill chances not matching actual results and deceptive difficulty adjustments undermine trust. The patch being blocked by Windows Defender reinforces suspicion.
- Amusement (weight 0.01): Players are amused by enemy designs copied from Resident Evil and Silent Hill, which they love, and by using edits and shotguns to dominate zombies. Balancing combat with ecchi to maximize damage and the ability to play one-handed add humorous value. Questioning who is the RBQ while collecting seeds provides lighthearted fun.
- Mild annoyance (weight 0.01): Players are mildly annoyed by grinding for levels and items, repetitive animations that cannot be skipped or sped up, and troublesome skill grinding. Patch files not always being uploaded with updates adds minor irritation. The overall experience remains tolerable despite these issues.}
